How strong is your museum’s website as part of the whole offer? Does it reflect your identity as an organisation? Does it appeal to your visitors? What does it really need?

Finally, a dive into the building blocks that help a site work particularly effectively. Hopefully, you’ll finish the post with a fresh perspective on your own site: you’ll be able to identify how to make it work better for your visitors and advocate for effective change as part of your organisation’s strategy. Of course, we threw some sites we built at Cogapp into the mix too.
